👉 A cable weapon, often referred to as a cable gun or cable rifle, is a compact firearm designed to shoot long, flexible cables rather than traditional projectiles like bullets or rounds. These weapons utilize a cable feed mechanism to propel the cable at high speeds, allowing users to deploy various types of payloads such as smoke, flares, or even live ammunition. The cable can be used for signaling, creating distractions, or as a decoy to draw enemies away from the shooter. The compact size and unique firing mechanism make cable weapons versatile and effective in scenarios where traditional firearms may not be practical or desired, such as urban combat or tactical operations.
